No Power
This was the most widespread power out recorded here. In its initial
moment, more than two hundred thousand households were cut off the
power supply at once, from north to south. Even though there are storms
every year, and it seems like this scenario is predictable, this time, too, the
electric company was unable to handle the load. The electric company’s
management blamed the employees yesterday, for not working in
emergency mode and trying to get more jobs using the storm. The
employees denied. The court forced them to go back to working full time,
but still situations like this one were documented - an employee sawing a
tree with a hand saw for hours. The malfunction continued all through the
night. In Hod Hasharon we met the Harari family by candle light, trying to
find the positive sides in this depressing situation. On the floor below
them, Yehudit, who can’t walk up or down the stairs, is under siege in her
apartment. And all this happens on the first rain, on the first day of this
winter.
